Popular Post markc Posted July 8, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 8, 2023 I think it was poor that the tournament wasn't picked up by the BBC or one of the other terrestrial channels. Can't understand why sky or BT didn't cover it, considering some of the rubbish they show. So while I think it's justified to moan/be disappointed about u21s not being on the TV, there's no need to bring the women's game into the argument. Show both. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 I watched the last 3 games, Italy, Portugal and Spain. Gordon was no where near the best player in any of those games, JJ, Colwill (who also held up JJ shirt in the celebrations) and Gibbs White were miles ahead of Gordon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's a daft idea But I'd be lying if I said that same idea didn't cross my mind last night... He's wasnt, don't even think he would consider himself to have had a good tournament, he was played out of position and was average at best 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpTheVilla26 Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Thing is, this is what will happen now that they've come wading in, waving the money about. I think corruption in football is rife, especially at the elite level (as seen with FIFA giving Qatar the WC). Gordon winning that award is a ridiculous decision but brings more exposure to a player who is part of the Newcastle Saudi led project, so I'd not be surprised at all if a few large, brown envelopes & fancy watches have swapped hands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
